What’s weird (among many aspects) about this piece is that its tone is, “lo, in those halcyon days of yore” and it’s about, like, 2013.

I'm so sorry to hear this. I'm thinking of you, and of Janet's family and colleagues.

Looking forward to reading this!

This is beautifully translated! I love the line “preached the Dharma so movingly that even the pebbles nodded.” Thank you for sharing it.

No convincing needed for me on the importance of both. My framing was more persuasive (getting people who might assume it isn't relevant to them bc of the venue to read it) than value-based or about disciplinary boundary-policing.

Of course! I simply meant that the ideas and reflections on computer vision/related ideas also have relevance for those of us who primarily work with texts. Perhaps I ought to have said: relevant and useful for all humanists.
